If egg liquid (whole egg, egg yolk or egg white) is stored at a temperature above 10 ° C, the growth of contaminating bacteria will be activated and early rot will occur in a short time, so the egg liquid should be as cold as possible immediately after breaking eggs. It is recommended to save. However, it is said that the freezing and freezing point of egg liquid is around -0.7 ° C, and the egg liquid freezes and solidifies when stored at a temperature below this freezing and freezing point. By the way, for example, when the yolk is frozen, its yolk protein is frozen and denatured, so that the yolk liquid after thawing has a significantly higher viscosity than the raw yolk and has a reduced emulsifying power. It is not suitable as a raw material for emulsified products. In addition, for whole eggs, whole egg liquid was frozen after pasteurization and frozen and stored at -20 ° C or lower,
So-called sterilized frozen whole eggs are commercially available. Although this product is cheap in terms of cost, the whole egg liquid after thawing it has a higher viscosity than raw whole eggs, and also has a lower foaming power and emulsifying power, so it is a high-class confectionery product. It is not suitable as a raw material for kneaded products. Furthermore, as for egg white, so-called frozen egg white obtained by freezing egg white liquid and storing it frozen at -20 ° C or lower is commercially available. Even if frozen, egg white protein does not freeze-denaturate, so after thawing, it can exhibit almost the same functional characteristics as raw egg white, but frozen egg white requires thawing work before use, and equipment and extra equipment for that purpose are required. It takes time and effort.

Under these circumstances, in recent years, a method has been developed in which the egg liquid is preserved at a low temperature in a liquid state without impairing the functional characteristics of the egg liquid by refrigeration (chilling) instead of freezing. For example,
A refrigerating method utilizing freezing point depression by blending additives, specifically, a method for producing refrigerated egg yolk disclosed in JP-A-50-64460 is known.

However, refrigerated eggs produced by these conventional methods are -5 ° C
Even if it is stored at a low temperature of 25 ℃, it is liquid but contains a large amount of sugar, salt or (and) edible oil, so not only the range of use of the final product is extremely limited, but also expensive in terms of cost. Stick to Therefore, it is very common to refrigerate the egg liquid itself at about 0 ° C. or higher, especially at 5 to 10 ° C., so that it can be used immediately as a raw material for various foods so as not to be frozen. However, even in such a refrigeration method, even if pre-sterilized, the shelf life of refrigerated products is 5 ° C for 8 days, 10 ° C for 10 days even if the initial number of bacteria is considerably low due to the low temperature resistant bacteria remaining in the egg liquid. Since the allowable storage period is as short as 4 days, it is the situation that not only refrigerated egg makers and users but also product storage managers and delivery companies find it inconvenient due to the short shelf life. is there.

When the inventors started the study in accordance with the above-mentioned purpose, the freeze-freezing point of the egg liquid was about -0.7 ° C, and
The egg solution was rapidly cooled in a refrigerant at 8 ° C, at which time the product temperature of the egg solution at the time when the egg solution began to solidify was measured and confirmed, and then various cooling tests were repeated on the egg solution. However, when the egg liquid is rapidly cooled in a refrigerant (for example, Freon gas) at about −18 to −20 ° C., the egg liquid becomes −
Although it begins to freeze at around 0.7 ° C, when the egg liquid is cooled in an atmosphere of -1 to -4 ° C, specifically, for example, it is cooled by putting it in a refrigerator whose internal temperature is -1 to -4 ° C. In this case, it was surprisingly found that a refrigerated egg having a product temperature in the temperature range and maintaining a liquid state for a long period of time can be obtained.

The inventors have found that the product temperature produced as described above is -1 to -1.
Further studies were conducted on the breeding status of contaminating bacteria during storage of refrigerated eggs at -4 ° C in comparison with refrigerated eggs having a product temperature higher than the freezing freezing point. Resistant bacteria have further been found to have their growth suppressed more than expected.

The egg solution thus prepared is stored in an appropriate container and then kept as it is in an atmosphere of -1 to -4 ° C. However, as is clear from the results of Test Examples 1 and 2 which will be described later, it is preferable to use the egg solution as a sterilized egg in order to produce a product that does not freeze-coagulate even at a lower temperature and can be stored for a long period of time. To sterilize eggs, use a heating device such as a plate heater. For whole eggs and egg yolk, 55-65 ℃ for 3-10 minutes, and for egg white, 50-60 ℃ for 2-10 minutes. Heat treatment may be performed.

In this way, sterilized eggs or unsterilized eggs may be directly held in an atmosphere of -1 to -4 ° C.
Even if the eggs are stored in a 100-ml flask and sealed tightly, about 50 g, whether they are sterilized eggs or unsterilized eggs when cooled in a refrigerator that keeps the internal temperature at -1 to -4 ° C Since it takes about 7 hours for the product temperature to reach -4 ° C, the egg liquid is pre-cooled from the viewpoint of shortening the working time and preventing deterioration of the egg liquid, and then -1 to -4 ° C. Cool in an atmosphere. The pre-cooling treatment may be performed, for example, by cooling the egg liquid to a temperature lower than 10 ° C., preferably 0 to 5 ° C., using a cooling device such as a plate cooler. Incidentally, -1
The atmosphere of to -4 ° C can be maintained at a constant temperature as much as possible, although the temperature may be varied within this temperature range.

The refrigerated egg produced as described above is in a liquid state even though it has a product temperature of -1 to -4 ° C, and its constitution is composed only of egg liquid. When storing and delivering such refrigerated egg products, particular attention should be paid to the maintenance of the product temperature.
